Sorry about not updating in a while. School is really getting to me and I was stuck for ideas.

Chapter 4:

After waking Yusuke up in great fashion (and his uproar), the group set out on their way. Kuwabara and Minako were

holding hands andhad looks of deep love and affection on their faces, Kurama was thinking, and Yusuke and Hiei were

having a small staring contest. The two of them didn't like the idea of a woman leading them on a journey to find some kind of

object of power.

Kurama broke up the silence and told the group: "So we are looking for the All Seeing Mirror? Such a powerful item." Hiei

scowled and said, "Fox, the mirror isn't that strong. Last I checked, it can only locate evil in one's soul and try to purify it."

Minako became a little angered at this statement. She looked Hiei deep into his blood red eyes and exclaimed "You're

wrong! The mirror can also absorb energy from any living creature, and it's main function is to locate "the one" that can wield

it to full power!"

"Seems you know alot about this mirror." Yusuke said with a yawn. Minako answered "I sure do, from achient texts passed

down in my family and from Genkai, my grandmother."

The whole group(except Minako) couldn't believe their ears. Genkai had a granddaughter! But that must mean...

"Yes, my mother is the daughter of the Younger Toguro and Genkai." said Minako with a serious look.

"You mean to tell me that Genkai and that evil Toguro did...it!" Kuwabara inquired, red in the face and sweating profusely.

"Of course. If they didn't, my mother or myself won't be here today." said Minako, placing her pale hand on Kuwabara's

flushed face.

Just then, someone jumped down from a nearby elm tree. It was a female, about 5'6'' tall. Her hair was a chocolate brown

and tied in a ponytail that curled at the ends a little. Her eyes were emerald green and shone just like the precious stone. Her

skin was slightly muscular and tanned, which fit her just fine.

The girl wore a green training gi that was the color of the surrounding forest. The shirt underneath was black, which matched

the belt around her waist and her boots.

Kurama knew who she was. "Makoto-chan. It's good to see you again!" he shouted. Makoto smiled back and said "It's good to see you too lover."

"Lover!" exclaimed a gobsmacked Yusuke and Kuwabara.

"It's good to see that you found your soulmate, Mako-san, I'm proud of you." praised Minako.

Makoto returned the greeting with "It's good to see you've found your special guy Mina-san. And a fellow Spirit Detective at

that!"

"Enough with the pleasentries, we need to find that damned whatever it is(he means the mirror) and now!" exclaimed Hiei.

Kuwabara stood over Hiei and said "Now shrimp. Let Minako-san and Mako-san talk. Maybe we'll have a new ally."

Hiei snorted at what this human said. "We don't need a new 'ally'. She's(Makoto) is too weak and so is your mate."

"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU SAY ABOUT MY MINAKO!" shouted Kuwabara, very pissed off at this point. He tired

to forma Spirit Sword, but Minako placed her small hand over Kuwabara's arm. "Please Kazuma, no fighting. We need all

the power we need to find themirror."

Kuwabara looked at his childhood friend. "Okay Hiei, I won't hurt you. But say anything else about Minako and you'll pay

big time!"

Minako looked sternly at Hiei and told the short demon, "And as for you Hiei, Makoto is going to join us on our quest and

you will be nice to her or else."

The group continued on their journey, not aware of a shadow hidden within the forest, ready to pounce at any time.
